Well, I agree. God Bless our pilots.
However, would you mind telling me why we should get involved in Libya? What our national interests are, who the rebels are, why this was different than Egypt, etc. You know, the details of why America should become involved in shooting down Libyan planes and bombing Libyan airports and all that.
...anything you could do to shed light on that would be appreciated. Also, why rallying around the president is a good thing. That too. What are his goals? What leadership has he shown? I’m curious about that too.
qadaffy is either going to stop blustering (shut his yap) and wrap this up quickly (remembering that possession is 9/10ths of the law), then get creative about making most of his countrymen happy, or we’ll have some drawn out mess with a back-and-forth trying to meddle between bad-guy qadaffy and all the other bad guys that want to be the chief Libyan bad guy.
This is what happens when communists win elections by controlling colleges and unions.
WAR is the result of all political failure.
This political administration is a total failure.
All of the sudden out of nowhere Obama is going to drop a bomb.
How many of our finest will die for Obama’s folly?
It would have been helpful if American citizens stood up and denounced this idea.
But....if your family member ain’t the one dying...who cares?
Who really believe any nation other than the US will carry the load? Anyone?
Me neither.,,
We’ll end up with 200,000 “refugees” in this deal....
Think Right and get serious!
Now the idiots on our side are trying to pretend they were not for a NFZ. What a bunch of hypocrites. And it is their fault. They pushed it.
Too late.
We have to take out the anti aircraft missiles first.
It will be over before it begins.
The US has just become the muslim arab revolutionary airforce, bombing a country with a very sizable WMD program.
Are you insane, or drunk??
They are, along with Germany, Brazil and India.
I have no idea what I believe. Fox just said that US will provide logistics and EU will do the heavy lifting.
I have my doubts, but I don't know what zer0 will say and how obstinate he will be. In this case I don't want our people doing the shooting and I don't think Barry wants that either. God forbid we agree on something....
Also kind of stupid. Gadaffi's army will have more free time to be looking in the skies for us.
Fully concur with non-intervention in Libya. What is our national interest in Libya. Both side hate us. Let the French deal with Libya - it used to be their province. I would rather use our forces (speaking as ex Navy) to clean out the pirate scum in Somalia.
There is only ONE reason this passed the UN. The Arab League wanted it.
That tells me all I need to know.
This really irks the hell out of me.
Now the UN has to figer out who is going no fly!
Unite around our President?
Which golf hole should they wait for him at?
